Today I got an offer to do some actual landscape architecture work--autoCAD for a small firm in eastern Connecticut. Needless to say, I'm thrilled. It may not be very much at first but any design work at any level is a BIG step in the right direction. A great thing about this is that I will still be working at the garden center, so have the best of both worlds, working directly with plants and people (though the funny thing is the most heartfelt moments often come when I mention how much sculpture adds to the individual personality of a garden!) AND working with a professional with many years experience in landscape design.

Lucky me...
